Bill Shanks’ column in the Macon Telegraph on why the Atlanta Braves should bring back their old mascot Chief Noc-A-Homa—a caricature of an Native American chief with a name that appears to be a baseball pun mashed together with what someone thought sounded like an “Indian name”—begins thusly:

We live in a politically correct world these days, with people sensitive about anything and everything.

You can probably guess where it goes from there. Here’s my favorite quote:

Twenty-five years ago when the Atlanta Braves became the team everyone loved, it was easy for Native Americans to complain about the things with the nickname that upset them. That’s a shame.

The Telegraph’s sports editor claimed on Twitter that the piece was pulled because Shanks “had a better idea for a column.” This explanation, even if true, isn’t a good enough reason to pull the column. We’ve reached out to the Telegraph, and we’ll update this post when they respond.
